1. Find the two perfect square numbers it lies between.
Solution:
32 = 9 and 42 = 16, so lies between 3 and 4.
2. Divide 10 by 3. 10/3 = 3.33 (you can round off your answer)
3. Average 3.33 and 3. (3.33 + 3)/2 = 3.1667
Repeat step 2: 10/3.1667 = 3.1579
Repeat step 3: Average 3.1579 and 3.1667. (3.1579 + 3.1667)/2
= 3.1623
Try the answer --> Is 3.1623 squared equal to 10? 3.1623 x
3.1623 = 10.0001
If this is accurate enough for you, you can stop! Otherwise, you can
repeat steps 2 and 3.
